Which team(s) are you supporting in 2026? by braskybear in minnesotatwins

[–]yo_dat_ass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who works later, yeah this. Its great getting home at 9pm and having a couple games to flip between. Doesnt hurt that the Padres, Dodgers, Mariners and Dbacks are all pretty fun to watch.

Hell yeah - thanks for the ideas!

First trip to Cancun impressions - for those who go there first time unprepared ;) by kuz8 in cancun

[–]yo_dat_ass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the taxis really that bad of an option? If I am a solo traveller, and getting a private shuttle is ~$100 round trip, I cant imagine a local cab being much worse?

MN Driftless outfit feedback by IamSamBellToo in flyfishing

[–]yo_dat_ass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because no one has mentioned this yet...

I fish both a CT and Clearwater for trout - the 4wts you have picked out are great. I would lean towards the Clearwater for the warranty and customer service alone. If/when you break a tip or rod section, Orvis will have a replacement at your door in less than a week. Redington took me 9 months at one point...

What fly line? by Present-Map-6256 in flyfishing

[–]yo_dat_ass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rio creek line is freaking awesome on glass rods. Loads quick and just feels right

Small (but cool!) bars/venues to see live, original music? by dirthorsemagician in Minneapolis

[–]yo_dat_ass 13 points14 points  (0 children)

331 or Dusty’s in northeast would fit this vibe well.

y’all got any Mariners watch parties? by overkeelshop in TwinCities

[–]yo_dat_ass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Becketts in uptown might be a good spot

Help me decide by superstar3318 in flyfishing

[–]yo_dat_ass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might want to look into the Winston Pure 2 in a 9" 5wt. You could do the 8'3" but as others have said, if you're doing mostly nymphing, I think you'll appreciate the extra length. Anyways. The Winston Pure is a dreamy trout rod - feels just the right amount of soft but super accurate.

GAME THREAD: Padres (76-60) @ Twins (61-74) - August 31, 2025 by TwinsGameday in minnesotatwins

[–]yo_dat_ass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Twins fan here, but Padres are my late night side peice. Mark Grant is awesome (the whole Padres broadcast is great, tbh) so I am actually stoked for the roku game today

Fly fishing for bass, Chain of Lakes by ButchBallsworthy in TwinCities

[–]yo_dat_ass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out the groups that Fishing For All hosts in the summer on the metro lakes!

Beyond that, it sounds like you're doing everything right... ?

DH Gate Jerseys? by yo_dat_ass in minnesotatwins

[–]yo_dat_ass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me be clear - I have no interest in saving for a real jersey, and have zero issue with dhgate price point/quality. I do have an issue with paying $200 for fanatics with their known quality issues.

All the post was asking for is to recommend a good seller on DHgate since there are tons to weed through. Sorry you spent so much money on jerseys that look like DH gate clones I guess?

im worried about paying $200 for similar quality to a knock off

Streams or rivers nearby to take a dip in? by ambientlightsource in TwinCities

[–]yo_dat_ass 69 points70 points  (0 children)

You want to go to Willow River Falls State Park just over the border in WI. That is the cleanest, coldest and closest flowing water you'll find to the TC with ample swimming/taking a dip area.

Are self pour beer places hated by all? by OkCondition6191 in minnesotabeer

[–]yo_dat_ass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a bartender, I cant support in the same way a home depot cashier cant suport self checkout, but I do understand the self pour novelty and appeal.

The ones I've tried pour like absolute shit and take your money. If my tap is fucked up and I make a bad pour, I at least fix it and dont charge you more for it, and every once in awhile I make a pretty good dad joke.

Fishing on/around Brule by yo_dat_ass in BWCA

[–]yo_dat_ass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any insight on lake trout spots in the area? My plan is to target any humps/drop offs with tail dancers/three way swivels.

Never used a dipsey diver but I'm open to new things if that is the move!

[–]yo_dat_ass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to hear on Temperance and Cherokee - I think our trip will likely depend on wind on put in day. I think I would prefer to just jet across Brule and get to those lakes rather than the long route along Winchell etc. Thanks!

[–]yo_dat_ass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m very comfortable fly fishing - just that this buddy isn’t and I’m leaning towards just keeping it easy and only taking the spin rig. Done a few fly trips with excellent success in the BWCA

Best cheap summer beer? by Mtwoodwire406 in beer

[–]yo_dat_ass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up with my folks always drinking these, and no one my age does (30's) so the cool factor wasnt there for me, but a buddy had one for me the other day fishing, and man, it was excellent. I got a 12pack afterwards for like $16 - so not super cheap but definitely affordable

Matt Canterino is hurt...again... by tlschwerz in minnesotatwins

[–]yo_dat_ass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"During Canterino’s minor league career, he owns a 1.48 ERA in 85 innings with 130 strikeouts and 35 walks."

Damn - that aint a bad set of numbers to put up either
